The Blue Gem was very clean, and stacked completely with everything you need!Of course we brought a lot of our own supplies. It is also Pet Friendly which we truly appreciated! The location is close to good restaurants and stores,but still a very private beach! We even found a wonderful Church to go to on Sunday! D. & J. Sleete

Check in was a breeze. Kitchen is "tight"y but mighty!! Loved having two sitting rooms convenient to the kitchen. The convenience of the house to the beach (and the view!) is worth every penny. All the beach accoutrements you could need. Great place!!

Beautiful little edge of the beach

Nice little house, right on the beach. Everything was very nicely set up and made available to us on arrival. Communication before and during was great and we very much enjoyed our stay. House was clean and well kept and the outside had nice and easy access to the beach. Thank you so much!

Awesome Property

We stayed here for our anniversary and had a wonderful time. The property was exactly as described, clean, well-maintained, and very comfortable. The entire yard is fenced, so our dog was safe and able to enjoy being off leash. The firepit was a great feature, especially in the evening with the ocean breeze. The grill worked perfectly and even had a full tank of propane, with a spare ready just in case. Check-in was seamless, and communication with the owners was easy and responsive. We would absolutely stay here again!

Exquisite property

The perfect beach getaway for a family of seven plus a dog. Not too far from town but far enough to feel like you are getting away. The view is amazing. House is beautifully decorated. Has everything one could need, fully stocked kitchen, plenty of towels, a cute dog area outside, dog toys, children’s toys, books, games, etc. we loved our stay.

Waited 101years to stay

Wanted to stay where my 101year old Mother could watch the waves. The weather kept us indoors , but Mom always had a terrific view. Windy an cold, she sat inside at the patio doors and slept and ate with a perfect view. Milder days she sat in the screened porch or got a little sun on the south deck. Great parking and beach access.

Beach life

Love love love this house! Had the best time with our family. Highly recommend this house if you are looking for a peaceful beach experience with your family. Great location. Just a short drive to all the cool shops and restaurants in the area. A week was not enough time to explore everything St. Augustine has to offer, we just have to go back next summer! Can’t wait to stay at the blue gem again! Thanks for sharing your house with us!

Cabana

The place was like a little cozy Cuban cabana. The price of $600 per night dBeach is 100 yards from the back door is a plus but cars going 60mph back and forth all night is a minus. Pictures on rental advertisements are inaccurate. It is an older home with aged exterior and much smaller than pictures depict.
